I haven't started Rule of Two yet but it's a little sad to see that it disappointed you considering how good the first one was. I've actually got a few Timothy Zahn books that I've yet to read. Allegiance included; I actually got it based on what you said a few pages back.

Currently reading To Kill a Mockingbird and loving it .

Done two critical essays on Mockingbird since August, with at least one more to do before July to boot. By the time of my Standard Grade, I'll know the damn thing off my heart.

Tokyo by Mo Hayder. If your interested in WW2 Japan or events such, then this is the book for you. It's about the Nanking Massacre where the Japanese Imperial army slaughtered around 300,000 innocent chinese iirc. For what Japan did in WWII, think of the Holocaust and then times it by 6.
